Answer:

first option

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio r between consecutive terms in the sequence, that is

r = - 15 ÷ 3 = 75 ÷ - 15 = - 375 ÷ 75 = - 5

The recursive formula allows a term in the sequence to be found by multiplying the previous term by r , thus

f(n) = - 5f(n - 1) if n > 1

with f(1) = 3 ← first term
